Last June on the strip pretty much all games paid 6:5, some 3:2 games were out there (like doubledeck at MGM), but they have an even bigger house edge then the 6deck 6:5 games.

It depends.

Most single deck games pay 6:5
most non single deck games pay 1.5:1

Here is a list of payouts by casino:

i would say the standard has become the 6:5 blackjack esp. on the strip.
the 3:2 tables are out there sometimes it takes some searching to find them. for example at the nugget a 3:2 was between 6:5 tables, no other differences, right in the party pit near the sportsbook. at binions they had one table that was 3:2 all the others were 6:5 [20+].

Sad what Harrah's/Becky did to Binion's.
